Recipe Review

It's hard for me to rate this one because I had to make it twice in order for it to come out right. Of the five ways to make this, I chose the oatmeal honey wheat bread.

Following the recipe exactly didn't work! It calls for using a food processor and doesn't say to proof the yeast. Other bakers on line commented that it took a while to rise. I knew my yeast was fine because I had used it the day before and making this time allowance, it never rose. I decided to bake it anyway and got a brick. Very disappointing. I needed to figure out why this didn't work.

I tried it again but in a mixer instead of a processor and proofed the yeast first. These two things did the trick. I got a really nice loaf of well-risen bread that made a great sandwich.

So- the taste and consistency of this bread are fine if you follow my directions and not the ones in the book!
